This license is more cost-effective than purchasing multiple Single Instance licenses for the same server.
The Dbvisit standby database license is included (including multiple standby databases from the same primary database).

AMD and Intel Dual core CPU are counted as single CPU.
AMD and Intel Quad core CPU are counted as 2 CPU.

Sun UltraSPARC T1/T2 6 and 8 CPU core is counted as 2 CPU.
RAC licensing:
For Oracle RAC (Real Application Clusters), the number of CPU is the total number CPU for all primary servers in the RAC database (exclude standby servers).
The Multiple Instances license applies for Oracle RAC.
You only need to purchase ONE Dbvisit Multiple Instances license for one Oracle RAC database across all your
primary servers (or nodes).
Cluster licensing:
For Linux and UNIX clusters (non RAC) and for Microsoft Cluster Server with Oracle Fail Safe, a Dbvisit license is required for each server in the cluster.
Dbvisit support:
Full support is available which includes technical support and product upgrades.
To extend maintenance beyond the first three months an additional twelve months of (annual) maintenance agreement can be purchased with the Dbvisit license
to extend the product upgrades and technical support to a total of 15 months for the first year (12 months for subsequent years).
The price for the annual maintenance agreement is 25% of the list price of the applicable license.
